To keep alive any party for a longer period, it is necessary to have its own ideology. Aam Aadmi Party's president Arvind Kejriwal needs to break down his big ideas and concentrate on hope which is the weapon for turning the tables for good results. The excitement and hope with which the movement was started by Aam Aadmi Party, is dying is own death, rather we can say even that the hope of Indians is dying down quickly.

Many movements of good
governance have been started in the past but the way AAP become
popular among the common man was miracle with the entry of Arvind
Kejriwal in Anna Hazare’s anti-corruption movement to the
sophisticated politicking in Delhi, followed by Kiran Bedi and so on
many persons and unfurled like a political fairy-tale, who have real
experience of the feelings of people fed up from the existing system.

In
Focus

Presently, Arvind Kejriwal's administrative failure
and committed blunders brought him to ground zero in the general
elections of Lok Sabha 2014. A few days before the results were
declared, while the political maths had accommodated them, nobody
could predict the overwhelming victory the AAP was looking at.

The party ended up clinching 28 seats in the state
polls, just four seats short of BJP's 34 and 20 seats more than the
Congress' 8. However, only four seats in Punjab was because the
situation is totally different as AAP movement was started with full
dedication to stand against both the Congress and BJP.

The first mistake on the part of AAP was to join
hands with the Congress, which leaders were already facing charges in
various scams and the people of India have given an open verdict not
only because of Modi wave but of corrupt leaders in the Congress
party.

Second mistake was that he took the hasty decision
to field its candidate all over India. Instead, he should have taken
his time after winning land mark response during the very first year
in Delhi elections and trained his legislatures the skills of
administration as ministerial candidates.

Third horrible mistake committed by AAP was that he
wanted to be look different with his self-righteousness forgetting he
is unprepared and new to the political administration.

Fourth mistake on their part is concealing its
failure with only ambition to succeed through agitation. Hardly
anyone has succeeded on this path, ultimately one has to come across
the table, change his strategy, not compromise with the circumstances
but to face them.

Number fifth mistake was- the senior leaders were
leaving the AAP being not satisfied with the ideology of Kejriwal
working. Among those who left the party were Madhu Bhaduri who openly
said that the party is side tracking from its ethics; Shazia Ilmi
said that there is discrepancy of democracy within the party and said
that only four people were taking decisions in the party.

The Swaraj which Kejriwal has promised could not be
brought within the party itself. Even Capt Gopinath left the party
and it became talk of the town that AAP is lying a sinking ship and
in the coming days more resigns are expected.

Number sixth mistake was- Kejriwal lost his
credibility after his failure and having no sustainability in Delhi
itself and survived for only 49 days and committed a big blunder by
resigning instead of facing with the circumstances. This is the
reason that AAP could not win a single Lok Sabha seats in Delhi and
lost the support of common man. In fact, the style of AAP has not
been liked by the people.

Number seventh mistake was- AAP could not establish
its confidence in its party volunteers and workers were demanding the
reconstitution of Parliamentary Affairs Committee (PAC) which decides
the future course of action of the party.

Number eighth mistake was- not in tune with the
working style like sitting on dharna by the CM as CM of Delhi and
later on resigning after 49 days and planning to contest against the
big guns of politics of BJP party.

Number ninth mistake was- having no clarity over the
important issues as it could not present its views on those issues
before the people during the Assembly and Lok Sabha elections. The
leaders were seen giving different statements on sensitive issues
like Kashmir, reservation and naxalism.

Last but not the least, it is never too late and
still not too late. AAP has to realize that working on somebody
else’s scripts is drawing it to dangerous depths. Kejriwal, being
head of the AAP should step back, take a little break from the media,
introspect, study the circumstances which led to his failure, make a
fool-proof strategy without the support of any other political party.
